If you are willing to make the trench first and then dope, Plasma Immersion Ion Implant (PIII) has been touted as a good way to dope sidewalls. Any number of furnace doping methods should work -- including BN and other disks used as a doping source.

Subject: [mems-talk] forming boron and arsenic doped sidewalls in a siliconwafer I am trying to form boron and arsenic doped sidewalls in trenches in a silicon wafer. I thought of doing reactive ion or electrochemical etching of the trench bottom after isotropic doping, but I'm worried that the reaction will be hard to time correctly because the silicon underneath would etch much faster than the doped layer. Any thoughts you have on the most efficient process to form doped sidewalls would be greatly appreciated.
